In response to determining screw compressor 240 not in acceleration, at square frame 330 place, controller 210 can determine that whether screw compressor 240 is in deceleration.Specifically, controller 210 can determine that based on status signal 290 whether the rotating speed of the rotor 242,244 engaged is in reduction.In one embodiment, based on several sampled point of status signal 290 and deceleration threshold value, controller 210 determines that whether screw compressor 240 is in deceleration, can not be wrongly interpreted as the deceleration of rotor 242,244 with the minor fluctuations of the rotating speed of the rotor 242,244 engaged during guaranteeing stable or steady-state operation.In response to determining that screw compressor 240 slows down, at square frame 335 place, controller 210 can select deceleration torque curve 222 from memory 220.
In response to determining screw compressor 240 not in deceleration, at square frame 340 place, controller 210 can confirm the relatively stable or stable state of the operation of screw compressor 240.At refrigeration system 100 run duration, screw compressor 240 can experience the period that is relatively stable or steady-state operation, at the rotating speed relative constancy of this period internal rotor 242,244, suction pressure and/or temperature relative constancy, and discharge pressure and/or temperature relative constancy.Thus, at square frame 340 place, based on status signal 290, controller 210 can determine whether screw compressor 240 runs at operating point place that is relatively stable or stable state.Be similar to above acceleration and deceleration is determined, whether controller 210 can run at relatively stable or steady state point based on several sampled point of status signal 290 and each threshold value determination screw compressor 240, thus guarantees that the minor fluctuations of rotating speed, suction pressure and/or temperature and/or discharge pressure and/or temperature can not determine that screw compressor 240 does not run at operating point that is relatively stable or stable state mistakenly.In response to determining the not relatively stable or stable state of the operation of screw compressor 240, at 345 places, controller 210 is that screw compressor 240 selects acquiescence torque curve 222, this make not to start, accelerate, to slow down and/or period electric motor system 230 that stable operation is relevant provides suitable torque 238 for screw compressor 240.
In response to determining that the operation of screw compressor 240 is relatively stable, at square frame 350 place, controller 210 can determine the operating point of screw compressor 240 based on status signal 290.As mentioned above, the array of torque curve 222 is included in the torque curve 222 for screw compressor 240 at the various speed of service, suction pressure and/or temperature and discharge pressure and/or temperature.Therefore, at square frame 355 place, controller 210 can select to correspond to based on status signal 290 torque curve 222 of the speed of service, suction pressure and/or temperature indicated by status signal 290 and discharge pressure and/or temperature from memory 220.In other each embodiment, multiple torque curves 222 that controller 210 can be selected near the operating point that indicates at status signal 290 from memory 220, and by carrying out interpolation method from the torque curve 222 selected and produce the torque curve 222 of the screw compressor 240 for running at indicated operating point.
At square frame 360 place, controller 210 can produce command signal 212 according to the torque curve 222 selected for screw compressor 240, and this command signal 212 requires that torque 238 is fed to screw compressor 240 by electric motor system 230.As mentioned above, screw compressor 240 presents fluctuating torque due to rotor 242,244 reception, compression and displacement fluids 110 usually.Torque curve 222 in one embodiment can be built into the fluctuating torque presented with screw compressor 240 and mate.Thus, when switching to another torque curve 222 from a torque curve 222, this switching ideally timing is consistent with torque ripple.Synchronously this in order to realize, controller 210 produces command signal 212, makes electric motor system 230 realize the switching of the torque curve 222 synchronous with the fluctuating torque of screw compressor 240.In other embodiments, other technology can be used realize synchronously.Such as, electric motor system 230 can sense torque ripple and in due course between switch torque curve 222.
